Map of the UK

Burton Joyce is a riverside village and civil parish in Gedling, Nottinghamshire, England, set on the north bank of the River Trent a short distance north‑east of Nottingham. Its setting on the Trent floodplain and the lakes left by former gravel workings give a strong waterside character, and the village benefits from good road and rail links with a local station providing regular services into Nottingham and beyond.

Historically it retains a core of older buildings including the parish St Helen's Church alongside Victorian and later housing, and it has long been a mix of local tradespeople, river‑related activities and modern commuters. The village has a busy community life with shops, pubs and clubs, opportunities for riverside leisure such as fishing and boating, and a generally popular reputation as a pleasant, semi‑rural place to live within easy reach of the city.
